Rhyme & Reason
By
John I. Blair
Using rhyme in poetry
Helps free the music
That hides in words,
Hides in us.
This tool that links our minds,
So awkward in its use
To release what lies inside,
Works better when it sings.
Even with minds confused
Hearing the song
Makes all things clear,
Meanings strong.
